About me

Compassionate, Holistic Support for Your Healing Journey
Welcome—I’m so glad you’re here. Taking the first step toward therapy is a courageous act of self-care. Whether you are navigating a complex emotional landscape, struggling with past trauma, or simply feeling "stuck," please know that you do not have to walk this path alone.

My Approach & Style
My therapy style is warm, interactive, and deeply collaborative. I believe in treating everyone with the utmost respect, sensitivity, and compassion. As a Licensed Professional Counselor in Louisiana with over six years of mental health experience, I am committed to creating a space where you feel truly seen and heard.

I take a holistic, person-centered approach to healing. This means I view you as a whole person, not a set of symptoms. I do not believe in stigmatizing labels; instead, I focus on helping you develop resilience, self-understanding, and meaningful life strategies.

To help you find balance, I integrate evidence-based practices tailored to your unique needs:

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT): To help shift patterns of thinking that no longer serve you.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) Skills: To provide tangible tools for emotional regulation and distress tolerance.

Somatic Therapy: To help process how trauma and stress are held within the body.

Areas of Specialization
I have extensive experience walking alongside clients through a variety of challenges, including:

Anxiety & OCD: Including social anxiety and chronic worry.

Depression & Mood Regulation: Finding hope and strategies for daily life.

Trauma & PTSD: Specialized support for physical/emotional abuse, assault, and complex trauma.

Neurodiversity: Supporting individuals and families navigating ADHD.

Life Transitions & Work Stress: Managing behavioral issues at school/home or professional burnout.

Relationship & Parenting Dynamics: Improving communication and healing family stressors.

A Space for Growth
My goal is to provide a non-judgmental, supportive environment where you can safely explore your experiences. Whether we are working through significant life changes or healing from the past, I am committed to walking alongside you with genuine care and professional expertise.

You are capable of healing and growth. Whenever you’re ready, I am here to start that process with you.
